In this world people were divided by classes, not nobles and peasants type of class and yeah that was a thing too but classes like king, hero, healer, farmer, reporter and such.
Of course getting some of those was hard my mother was a Noble Senator in the parliament and my father was a simple lumberjack because of that I got my mother's Noble Senator and my father's Lumberjack class and so I started chopping wood as a hobby and started working as a senator.
Winning the election wasn't that hard in my city because my family ruled these lands even before the liberty revolution and almost every senator in the parliament was a noble because running for senator was hard and expensive if you were a normal peasant but if you were a noble it was easy as making a pie.
When I was 22,The King and The Empress died because of a "hunting incident" and they had six kids everyone was relaxed because the heir was already chosen and because of this no chaos happened in the country.
The heir was perfect too, they called her Ophenia The Genius, she introduced militia guilds trade unions and more but there was a little problem with Ophenia, actually two problems.
First problem was the fact she was only 13, she was too young for the throne but still she had no problems dealing with the adult stuff even I hated doing paperwork and I was only 22 at the time.
Second problem was the fact she was a sick kid but she attended everything that she could and she was so great at it that everyone forgot the fact she was a sick kid this didnt cause any problems for the next eight years but when she was 21 something bad happened.
She had a "Hunting incident" and the bullet ruptured her heart vessels she got extremely lucky because there was a doctor there her uncle Carlen and he was an expert at heal magic but even this wasn't enough after few months of resting because of her heart.
She got diagnosed with a brain disease but this was hidden for few months because a great war was going on the biggest war in the world almost every nation was in it and I was fighting in the north too and of course I was great at using the battleaxe.
I was called the Bear Of The North because of my height and my muscles and maybe because of my good beard too, I wasn't a weak or a normal man I was the strongest and I was proud of it just like my father and the war ended against us.
In the peace talks The Empress killed the enemy king with her own hands in front of every nation after this The Empress was forced to abdicate she rejected it and kept her title but she was a smart woman and gave the Parliament ruling powers.
The Parliament ruling powers were basically win every senator you win the country and every person with a power wanted to win the parliament and after that the parliament was divided into 20 factions but this ended after the Bealix Purge.
You might be wondering about The Bealix Purge, the name Bealix came from the second princess Bealix von Lorsten, She raided the parliament and purged everyone in the name of the empire only the pope and his faction survived this purge.
Luckily I wasn't there because I lost the election, How you ask ? Let's just say it was about my dick and a tree not going into details there but you got it.
After The Bealix Purge every royal member tried to take power and no surprise Bealix came in the first place with her faction/party Loyalists.
Such a lame name right ? Well....She controlled the military so you really can't say it is lame.
Well after that power grab the parliament got divided in six and I joined the pope faction because I was a religious man too and the Pope Lorep and me were close.
And after one year this is where we start.
I woke up early just to arrive at the parliament in time because my city Urant was in north and the capital was in the south and my journey took five days or six days via horse I hated it but I hated teleporting even more it was a disgusting feeling think about it.
Your whole insides teleport before you and you feel like someone is taking them it is disgusting and creepy and because of that I had to take the long road.
After six days I arrived at the parliament the guards were scared of me like always because I looked like the guy in the tavern that is sitting in the corner and drinking while glancing at you.
I was used to it and every time I passed them I gave a scary glance just to scare them and after I glanced at the guards someone touched my shoulder I turned around to see who.
"Hey stop scaring them"
It was Lorep we got along because our ages were close and we had similar thinking. I laughed loudly over his comment.
"HAHAHAHA I am just glancing I don't bite"
Lorep let out a sigh and passed me with his long pope outfit I hated it because of his cape was so long that I stepped on it like always, Lorep turned to me with an angry face he was the glasses type he wore his little glasses and played with it every time a lady passed by.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
"HEY AGAIN ?"
"Oopps sorry I couldn't see your little cape"
And the parliament doors opened for Lorep they never did it for me and I was quite jealous of it but I really didn't care about it that much.
I looked around the council for the seats almost all of them were full expect for three leaders they were not there.
The Mad Empress was there but she looked like a white doll, her hair and eye colour turned to white because of the medicine and she was sitting in her wheelchair and her uncle was sitting next to her.
The Real Empress Bealix was standing in front of her faction with a smug look on her face she fixed her hair and bowed to the Lorep and Lorep did the same he didn't like her but he had to do it anyways.
I was going to sleep through this like always and like always lorep would wake me up when the vote is about to start.
Hey I might look like a lazy man but I do my work when I wake up and you should fucking trying riding a horse for six days.
And the vote was about to start Lorep poked me and I woke up thanks to him.
"Now we are going to take the votes for removing the slavery protection act"
Removing the slavery protection act ? Pfft I wonder which idiot came up with this idea quarter of our population is full of beast humans and to slave them again is just pure absurd whatever I will just vote no and raise my hand.
"Votes for yes"
I yawned and I was still sleeping I just needed to raise my hand to the No vote and I can leave this place.
"Votes for no"
I raised my hand and for a moment there was a silence but then.
"361 To 1"
Good one idiot voted yes and I yawned again and stood up I was going to the door and I noticed everyone was looking at me.
"Is it not over yet ?"
I was surprised to see everyone looking at me with surprised I wondered what happened and I turned to Lorep even he was looking at me with surprise.
Damn what did I do wrong this time ? Maybe my clothes ? I checked my clothes nothing was wrong and they were still looking at me after some silence lorep spoke.
"I am sure senator lorsten was sleepy can you vote again ?"
Ohh they didn't see me voting that must be why I made a smile on my face like nothing was weird.
"I vote no I mean who the fuck would vote yes for this and that one idiot voted yes amazing"
Again the room was looking at me and the parliament speaker answered my question.
"The vote passed 361 yes and 1 no"
I really didn't care about the results and I found this joke to be funny.
"Sure sure I am sure empress voted to remove her own law"
Again they stared at me Lorep was sweating because of nothing ? Something was wrong here and I went back to my seat and with a serious tone.
"Let me get this clear I am the only one who voted no to removing the act right ?"
"Yes senator I am sure we had our laugh and you should change your vote soon so we can get a full pass"
Wait wait wait wait wait...No FUCKING WAY. I turned to Lorep with an angry face he knew I was outraged and he turned to Bealix and I knew I fucked up there, but it was too late to turn back now normally I would shut up for these things but this was too much and I couldn't hold my anger in.
"Okay what the fuck is going on here"
Bealix started to glare at me with her red eyes like I was the only naughty one in the parliament and she talked.
"You better watch your mouth Senator"
My thoughts and my voice started speaking the same language.
"WATCH MY FUCKING MOUTH ?"
"YOU BETTER BE KIDDING IF THIS ACT PASSES A QUARTER OF OUR POPULATION WILL BE SLAVES"
"ARE YOU FUCKING MAD ?"
"WHAT THE FUCK EMPRESS WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU VOTING YES ON THE LAW YOU FUCKING PUT"
Bealix was getting mad at me and she started to talk back too.
"THIS IS THE PARLIAMENT YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR FUCKING MOUTH"
"OH REALLY ? YOU MUST THINK YOU ARE THE GODDESS HERE CONTROLING EVERYONE WITH FEAR"
She laughed at me her serious expression turned into a smug one.
"Oh yeah I am the goddess here"
Ooppss I cannot show the lines here, too much bad stuff you know....but let's say I was so angry that I broke my own table.
"YOU ARE THE FUCKING POPE GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER LOREP AND YOU ARE THE FUCKING EMPRESS I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT YOUR DISEASE YOU ARE THE FUCKING ONE WHO GAVE POWERS TO US YOU BETTER FIX THIS SHIT OR THE WHOLE EMPIRE IS GOING TO FALL BECAUSE OF SOME STUPID SLAVERY"
I was swinging my fingers at both of them and Lorep switched sides.
"I am sorry but I want to change my vote to no"
He knew which one of us more scarier than the other and he knew what was going to happen if I was left alone.
"The vote has been already casted so"
Bealix was right to recount the votes again we needed a recount order or a tie and there was no tie the last option was the mad empress she had the authority to order the recount.
"YOU FUCKING STOP SITTING IN THAT CHAIR AND RECOUNT"
Bealix was having none of it and she ordered the palace guards to take me out.
"Senator is mad give him some fresh air-"
She was interrupted by Ophenia the mad empress.
"Recount"
Everyone was surprised to see Ophenia order recount and they thought their empress was back and so they all started to switch sides, when the recount votes were starting something bad happened, Ophenia lost herself.
Bealix was so mad that she was glaring at me with murderous intent well I expected this to happen.
"Queen your vote ?"
"No"
She voted no I was relieved to see her vote no but there was something wrong with her.
"No"
"No No"
"N-No"
She started to cut herself with her nails while saying this wasn't healthy at all.
"No"
"NOOOOOOOOO"
It was a disturbing scene to see the empress do something like this but this changed their opinion and they started to switch to Bealix again and so the empress was escorted outside of the parliament.
But I wasn't going to give up that easily the recount also meant a debate and I was going to use it after six hours of debate with Bealix she was mad and she was ready to use force.
"Okay I have had enough"
She pulled her sword and held it against my beard because I was way taller than her.
"Now you better fucking back off senator I really don't want to execute you for insulting not only the empress but the whole parliament you get it ?"
She dared to pull a sword on me but I had my battleaxe with me and when I touched it she cut my chin.
"Don't you dare"
I smiled at her.
"See you in hell"
We both pulled our weapons and there was only one winner among us...
"M-MY H-HAND YOU CHOPPED IT O-OFF"
I had my wood axe with me too because of that she didn't see it coming.
She started to scream in pain and the guards surrounded me, she started pointing with her left hand
"YOU ARE SO DEAD KILL HIM RIGHT NOW"
But none of the guards moved because lorep intervened.
"This was self defence Second Princess Bealix"
"S-SELF DEFENCE HE FUCKING CHOPPED MY HAND OFF"
"Well you cut his chin so you are even but that bleeding looks bad you should get treated"
"Y-YOU"
She took her hand with her and ran out of the parliament.
[Yes 0]
[No 360]
